Answer:

The length of the side AC is approximately 4.28.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the image attached we have a right triangle, in which the length of one of its leg and the angle opposite to it are known. We can know the length of the other leg by using the definition of the tangent of an angle, that is the ratio of the length of the opposite leg to the length of the adjacent leg. That is:


\tan 35^(\circ) = (3)/(AC)


AC \approx 4.28

The length of the side AC is approximately 4.28.
